In the variation, when users clicked on the flavor pulldown three things happened. First, they were anchored back to the top of the buy box. Second, the floating sticky disappeared. And third, the flavors pulldown automatically expanded (overlapping the original primary add-to-cart button).

Most visibly, an abstract or vague headline statement (control) was changed to a benefit oriented one - hinting that subscribers will eventually receive valuable case studies. This message was further reinforced with supporting copy that explained where these case studies are obtained from along with the frequency of the delivery. This same message was also reinforced with an image of actual case studies. The call to action button was also adjusted to mimic the benefit.
